Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Binary.1001 at 93% against Takuzu's 56%. Binary.1001 also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 31 months). Takuzu's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Takuzu holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Binary.1001 has 46 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Takuzu's written reviews are positive against 93% of Binary.1001's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Takuzu ships an update every 31 months, Binary.1001 every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
